Hello,
I have a Manchester to Birmingham annual season ticket and will be travelling to London. Can I purchase a Birmingham to London return and board a WCML service which does not stop, or indeed pass Birmingham?
I can see from the Conditions of Travel 14.2 that the train does not need call at the ticketing middle station, however I cannot see anything about the train passing the station?
Any clues? It's a welcome saving of £30+ given I already pay over £6k on a season ticket.
Conditions of Travel 14.2
"If you are using a Season Ticket, daily Zonal Ticket, or another area based Ticket such as a concessionary pass, ranger or rover in conjunction with another Ticket and the last station at which one Ticket is valid and the first station that the other Ticket is valid are the same, then the train does not need to call at that station for your combination to be valid."
